"The Curse"
Episode 111 - Part 1
(aired the week of 1/18/1997)
Case # 63-1136
Log line: Death strikes archaeologists who uncovered an Egyptian burial chamber.
Synopsis: The hieroglyphic curse found inside an ancient Egyptian
burial chamber - "All those who disturb this tomb will die" - proves tragically
true, when members of an archaeology team who enter it mysteriously die. The
O.S.I.R. finds that all the victims suffered brain hemorrhages. But why did
three survive: site leader Frederick Roberts, the only one among those who
entered the chamber to be spared, and Geena Fakhry and Hran Jamal? Both Genna
and Hran reveal they dreamed of the Egyptian god Anubis, whose statue was found
inside the three-century-old tomb and who warned them of the curse. Geena tries
to convince Roberts to return the artifacts his team carried off, so the curse
will end. The site leader skeptically dismisses the womanŞs concerns...only to
suddenly die of the same cause.
Fearful of losing one of his own team in the tomb, O.S.I.R. Case Manager Connor Doyle first sends in a mechanical probe. While the device records no paranormal activity, it also shows that there is no corpse nor a sign of looting. Baffled, the O.S.I.R. returns to the warehouse to examine the artifacts for clues. There, Hran sees the living figure of Anubis, flees in terror and falls, dead - of a hemorrhage. Knowing the only answer lies within the tomb, investigator Lindsay Donner leads a team inside while Geena waits, anxiously awaiting her fate. The O.S.I.R. will learn whether the curse is finally broken...or whether it will claim two more victims in its 3000-year history.

"Angel On A Plane"
Episode 111 - Part 2
Case # 26-0122
Log line: A mysterious woman safely lands a plane hit by lightning.
Synopsis: Passengers and crew members of a private jet share an impossible story: When their plane is disabled by lightning during a freak storm, the pilot and co-pilot are electrocuted. But rather than crash, the aircraft is landed safely by a mysterious woman.
The O.S.I.R.'s Dr. Anton Hendricks hypnotizes pilot Jim Graves - who claims to have been revived by the mysterious figure, two passengers and flight attendant Mary OŞBrian, only to find that their stories donŞt match. Hendricks does believe that co-pilot Jarvis Parks might hold the key...but the man, in critical condition, is not expected to survive.
Nothing makes sense: Lightning should have crippled both the landing gear and radio, both of which remained operational. Since the cabin was still pressurized upon landing, the mysterious woman could not have entered or exited the plane. Making the tale more baffling is the fact that the landing site was a World War II military airfield, when another plane crashed due to lightning in 1945, leaving no survivors.
Soon after the O.S.I.R. orders all of the witnesses monitored, they notice Mary speaking to someone in Parks' hospital room, yet the monitors show only the flight attendant and the co-pilot present. Mary, however, claims to see the mysterious woman - this time, wearing a 1940s nurse's uniform and tending to the ailing man. Is there a real connection between the shadowy figure and the past...and, if so, how far do her powers go?
